The ambiance was amazing. A hostel with a pool, that’s awesome. Great place to stay in the city of Colombo with superb assistance. Yanise is so kind and friendly. You can always count on her. We had only one breakfast out of 6 days stay as we went outside Colombo as well, for 3 days. Nice location and staffs. Will surely book the same hostel if given the chance. Cool room as well by the way. We’re group of six (friends) and they put us together in one room. Cheers.

    The room and the space exceeded my expectations, I was pleasantly surprised. Staff where very friendly and helpful. For a budget stay Inn, it really was an amazing experience and the room certainly was not of budget standard at all. I loved the hippy and modern décor, made it feel very chilled compared to bustle happening outside. A very calm space was created.
